at levels that only result in a little dizziness.

Anecdotal first hand account, I would have to completely disagree with you. I tried intravenous ketamine therapy about a year ago. I’m plenty experienced with psychoactives, having experienced several at varying doses, so I knew what I was in for. My IVKT experience was a full on trip, definitely not just passive dizziness.

It certainly would have been interesting if Bohr had been found dead upon arrival because his oxygen mask wasn’t properly handled.

Good to know there are products targeted at exclusively the ultra wealthy. Was worried that with all of the calls for them to pay their fair share of taxes that the markets for them would dry up. /s

Fixed it for you.

100C? Where we boil water? ;)

Yes we kindly accept iTunes gift cards.

Everyone I know who used to pirate music, now just subscribes to Spotify or whatever. So definitely not the case there.

Sure, people can ascend through income classes, but there’s always a new cohort of broke young people. I imagine young adults today are pirating plenty as well.

$5/mo for lullabies for adults feels… I mean do you, build that side-income

There’s some economic idea I heard a long time back whenever I hear about piracy, where basically the argument for allowing piracy of digital goods is “well, the majority of digital pirates lack the income to be honest customers in the first place; even if you managed to stop 100% of digital piracy, you’re not going to find any residual revenue.”

I don’t know how I feel about it, but it always intrigued me.

I could never really see which sounds genuinely helped me sleep

Have you tried “no sound”? Your free competitor is occupying market share and you need to figure out a way to pivot and compete.

Lmfao.

“Since Galileo’s time the physical sciences have leaped forward”

Wow, who is letting high school students write for Scientific American these days?

Found the CEO

If a rocket company CEO can be replaced by an e-tail company exec, what do CEOs do that warrant such high earnings again

Why do people unironically like “Walk On The Wild Side”

Answer: “can I kick it? Yes you can.”

Thanks, must have missed the module versioning bit

Can somebody please explain to me why this doesn’t constitute a major version due to a breaking change? Maybe I didn’t read precisely enough but it sure sounds like a breaking semantic, esp. with the fact that “this will only work for versions 1.22 and later.” Sounds like a version upgrade trap to me? What am I missing?

Or is it just because it’s Golang and they’re “we’ll never release a go v2 even if we actually do release go v2 and call it v1.x”

analyist

Imagine throwing away all of this lithium for batteries on “attritable war technology”

“I flew stealth fighters in the Air Force. I flew the F-22. It’s an amazing airplane, but we only bought a hundred eighty-seven of them.“

“When we look to the future, we just think that this economic model doesn’t work—so we’re going to increase the mass, just the number of physical things, that we’re able to bring into the theatre.”

I mean generally speaking wouldn’t you not want your enemies to get hands on your tech? Like, with solution it’s basically like saying “come join us, let’s make a shit show of it.”

Anybody with even a cursory understanding of Adversarial Networks and critical thinking skills can conclude that this is a horrible idea. The end result will be better forged information, indistinguishable by anyone (in the limit). We probably need rubes as a buffer.

I’m trying to bootstrap some robotics knowledge for myself to try and start building a portfolio of robotics projects and then go look for jobs. I’ve got an industry background in SE, from distributed cloud computing to low level embedded systems & os driver development, plus a background in higher maths & physics (diffeq+group theory, qm), and a familiarity with the SOTA of ML from 2022.

Is this book a good starting place for theory, or would I be better served looking elsewhere? Is my approach of trying to build a small private portfolio stupid, can I get hired without a degree? I’m interested in trying to get into industrial automation.

It’s the AI thing. Everybody is building walls around their data.

So stop using chrome. Tell your CTO that your engineer department no longer wants to develop for chrome as the primary web app target.

Didn’t think I’d see “social contract collapse” in 2023 but here we are. Anyway, cute the flames, let’s eat the fucking rich already

Why

Man, I wish we could all write a card to Keita, all the kids of the 00’s, and tell him thanks for a good time rolling around.

The En-xitification of Xitter

Twitter. Twitter. Twitter.

Not X.

Ok

I feel like Andy Weir did a phenomenal job with his handful of books. The Martian, Project Hailmary. Both of these felt more like team effort emphasis, which I liked.
